angiepants [one pocket at a time]

Hi, I'm a newly turned 22 year old long island lady whose living her second life in philly, home of squished pretzels and 'brotherly' love. I'm going to school for Physical Therapy and known to geek over anything anatomy or adaptive sports. My favorites are fruit, artsy things, and laying on the ground instead of actual chairs. This is my place of inspirations, thoughts, and daily occurences. Enjoy.

I carry my sony camera around in its leather pouch with me 96% of the time.

Isn’t it a pretty basic equation?

I outreach.  We make plans.  You cancel plans. ___________ (Insert chirping crickest and me left not seeing you)

People, please stop ditching.  If you do, please have the decency to be the outreach-er next time.

On things you outreach you can’t help wanting, can’t force, but just want

Attention.  Care.  Outreach.

Those are really all the things people want in life.  Currently I’m confused.  I’m a talkative person, an RA, in a sorority holding a Chair position, close to family, and the list goes on…but I feel solo and left out.

I reach out. I seek out.  I help out.  I’m confused when I’m not sought out, invited, or cared for by somebody, anybody, else on a more frequent basis.  Honestly, it’s not anything entirely selfish, just an extension of the ‘Eldest Sibling Syndrome’ where you’re in charge of yourself and in charge of everybody else’s welfare.

Maybe I can blame the fact that I’m so self-sufficient and so independent that it leaves so many other people thinking I don’t want their outreach, don’t need their help, or don’t need their simple invites.

Am I doing or thinking something wrong?
